One teenage girl, June had a fight with her mum, Carol, over a dirty glass, resulting in the mum dragging June around by her hair before June pushed back and dislocated her mum’s shoulder. Now, she has turned to the online community to see if she was in the wrong, as the shocking full story comes to light.
She Had a Love-Hate Relationship With Her Mom
A teenager named June finds herself in a love/hate relationship with her mother, Carol.
Their struggle to get along was further fueled by the fact that Carol, with a history of violence, was easily angered.
The scars left by her go deep into June’s memory, while her younger sibling also saw Carol’s outbursts.
It was June who often became the target of Carol’s anger—a crucial aspect of this story.
… And Her Reactions Were EXPLOSIVE
The moment that shattered their brief peace occurred when June innocently left a dirty glass on the dinner table.
Carol’s reaction was nothing short of explosive. Carol stood up and shouted at June for her accidental mistake, not intending to calm down.
Determined to escape the shouting match, June turned her back on her mother and retreated to the kitchen. Her retreat only ignited Carol’s rage as she continued to berate June.
Her anger turned into physical violence in no time at all. She forcefully shoved June to the ground, throwing her across the house and gripping her hair in her hands.
Leaving June Traumatised
This nightmarish sequence of events left June traumatised, her very core shaken. June summoned her strength, pushing Carol away in self-defense.
She knew this act would cause Carol to collide with a wall.
Once the dust had settled and Carol had been admitted to the hospital, June was informed that she had dislocated her own mother’s shoulder.
Then, Carol unveiled a shocking plan, coming up with a fake story to tell the doctor. Carol told the doctor that she had fallen down the stairs to save her daughter from getting into trouble.
She Wanted the Doctor To Know About the Abusive Relationship
This confused June as she wanted the doctor to know about Carol’s abusive behavior that led to the violent act.
June confided in her trusted father for advice, but her father’s response was far from supportive.
Lashing out at June, he labeled her with expletives, saying it’s her fault for using violence against her mother.
He insisted that June should be responsible for her actions. June also told her closest friends that she doesn’t feel responsible or guilty for what happened.
“Charging Your Mother With Child Abuse and Physical Assault”
With nowhere left to turn, June has resorted to Reddit for advice. Should she feel guilty? Reddit certainly didn’t hold back.
Some users feel that she should have her mother charged with acts of violence, “Tell your father that the alternative to you defending yourself is you charging your mother with child abuse and physical assault, and ask him which outcome he prefers.”
They also felt that the mother was being selfish, “your mother isn’t covering up for YOU, she’s covering up for herself. he’s just gaslighting you by telling you it’s a favour she’s doing for you.”
Do you think June did what she had to do in this situation? We want to know your thoughts in the comments.
